Is it normal for people to demand attention when they do good deeds and is that the only reason they do them?

I was attending a webinar this week and during Q&A I was surprised that almost everyone would interject unnecessary details into their personal life while framing their questions to the chief lecturer. It’s like they were asking questions to get praise and validation and not because they needed knowledge about their question topic. What surprised me is seemed 100% of the question askers had some level of attention seeking involved in their question asking. I now know why so many people were angry at my academic achievements, they thought I was better at getting positive attention then themselves, I had a big vocabulary and a confident mouth.

". ... unnecessary details into their personal life while... "

so basically you are doing the same thing... you do realize that don't you. 🤭

If the good deed is being a hero by saving someone.. you should not ask for attention. You arrive. Save.. and silent disappear..

Some do. . Others will post it online. Or let other people film while they are saving people, animals.

If you are doing a good deed as an animal shelter employee... yes you may ask for attention. To prevent it from happening again.. or to point out to people it exists.

If you pass by. See someone in need it has no use to tell the whole fu**** world what you did..

Because then you will make yourself more important then the one in need.

{ remember that sometimes extra " personal " information is needed to explain why you ask a question or why you give an answer..

Take care. 😃
